Before agents can participate in the economy, someone has to answer the trust question: who authorized this agent, and within what limits? On Monday evening in Seoul, that question filled a room. Thank you to everyone who joined Proof of AI: Korea Special Edition, and to our partners @soohoio, @avax, @hashed_official, @FabricFND, and @tiger_research_ for building the evening with us. Our Cindy Shi opened with a keynote on Kite Passport and the state of agentic payments: where Kite Passport sits in the stack, why identity, permission, and trust come before scale, and live demos of what agents can already do today. Then the panel dug into the agent economy in Korea, moderated by @yumi_mika_ (SOOHO IO), with @eugene_avax (Avalanche Team1), @junkim (Hashed), @degenapeo (Fabric Foundation), and @ekko_924 (Tiger Research): ▷ What infrastructure agents need as they evolve from tools into economic actors ▷ How authorization should be designed: budget limits, permission controls, and security verification ▷ Which agent use cases will land first in the Korean market Seoul is taking the agent economy seriously. Thank you, and see you at the next one. 🪁
